    Weigh in, how often?

    Is it odd for me to just not want to know what my losses are? I have dieted before & found that I haven't lost as much as I'd hoped and it has lead to comfort eating-from total disappointment. I'm due to be weighed on Monday but although I know i've lost by the way my clothes feel i'm thinking...

    VCLD - Pros & Cons

    I totally agree with Starlight,some people find it incredibly hard to moderate,for myself I wish I could stick to a slimming club but Im all or nothing a VLCD is perfect for someone who has emotional ties to food & has used it to self medicate. Sometimes having a total abstinence helps you...

    VCLD - Pros & Cons

    I stopped for two years & enjoyed life but I still lost 7lbs in those two years meaning that I still didn't put on weight even though I had previously stopped a VLCD that i'd had sucess on. I mean not everyone piles it back on. It's all about if you're prepared to keep moving forward no matter...

    VLCD's and Pancreas/Gallbladder Problems?

    Losing weight in the wrong place

    I have the exact same problem!! I think if you're a pear shape like me it's inevitable, I want to have no cankles for the first time ever & loose my ass & thighs! But it seems my waist goes small & my boobs dissapear! I suppose its typical that the place you want to lose it is often the last to go.

    Having a tattoo while on a VLCD

    It's so true, The sugar in your system seems to help you keep control, I had a pin up half sleeve all in all it took 16 hours & I had to have some sessions stopped through blood pouring out of me & my tattoist being completely unable to carry on. I felt the difference in pain too! He was on the...

    OMG! I'm on the edge of eating something!

    Can I ask? What your opinions on using Ketostix are? I felt an intense sickness last night but I think it was a combination of too much too soon as I really pushed myself on a x- trainer to rid my body of carbs faster,as I hear the body burns carbs first,however after all this the Ketostix...

    Anybody NOT put the weight back on and had to restart? Any long term success stories?
